What to Expect

We appreciate you going to the full schedule: https://www.courtyardchiro.com/hours-fees/

Welcome to our compassionate, safe, judgement-free zone!
We recognize that everyone is on a personal journey. Regardless of your history, current health, nutritional status, challenges, and level of activity, we are here to support you. Each of our team members is on their own health journey, having overcome many different challenges themselves (100 pound weight loss, significant injuries, emotional health concerns), and love helping, drawing from the wisdom, research and healing that has come from their experiences. From inactive to athletic, from infant to pregnant to senior, we are here to help guide and educate you in your body’s healing process and health optimization.

We maintain and enforce a Scent Free Zone:
Due to allergies and reactions, Centenary Hospital and our clinic enforce a scent free zone. Please do not wear perfumes/ colognes or scented body cream to our clinic. It is our priority to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for everyone. Thank you in advance!

Last Minute Cancellations and Missed Appointments:
48 hours’ notice is required for Initial Chiropractic Assessment appointment changes.
24 hours’ notice is required for all other appointment changes.
We reserve specific appointment times specially for you, and for all of our patients. Out of respect for all patients’ time and care, and the time of our care providers, last minute and missed appointment charges will apply.

Your First Visit

What people say: “After my first visit, I felt so informed, comfortable and confident that I had chosen the right place!”

Initial Visit Form: Your intake form must be complete in advance of your appointment! Please COMPLETE your comprehensive health history form and EMAIL it to us. All of this information is integral to us being able to provide you the best possible care and follow up advice.

For children under 16 years of age a Pediatric Form must be used, and parent/guardian consent will be obtained. Please have this filled out at home before your initial visit, if at all possible.

Your doctor and team will review your history, current situation and health goals, then perform a comprehensive examination, which includes a number of tests and tools appropriate to your unique situation. They will share their clinical findings and recommend a custom care plan of visits to the clinic and things for you to do at home, work and/or school. You’ll be emailed your prescribed home program. We may also recommend ergonomic changes and simple lifestyle shifts that can make a world of difference in your experience, healing and results!

  • Postural assessment
  • Gait analysis
  • Range-of-motion testing
  • Orthopedic tests
  • Neurological assessment
  • Muscle testing
  • Spinal joint mechanics testing
  • Flexibility testing

If X-rays are necessary, you will be provided with a requisition and instructions on how and where to get them done. If diagnostic imaging has already been done for you, we will request your reports.

Subsequent Visits

How many visits will I need?

There is no way to advise you about your schedule of care before you are assessed. Our Chiropractor makes recommendations based on your clinical findings, diagnoses, current situation and health goals. For someone who has not been seeing a Chiropractor on a regular basis, a possible schedule of care might be twice per week for 6 weeks. You are assessed each visit as you receive care, but we also book more formal check ups/check ins about every 12 visits. Changes to your schedule of care are discussed, testing is done to assess changes and improvements in ranges of motion, symptoms, muscle/spinal/orthopedic/neurological test results etc.

The frequency of care is very important, especially as you start care, to re-train and re-balance muscles, ligaments, tendons and nerve patterns. We will always reduce the frequency of your visits as soon as possible, based on your response to care. Doing your part makes a huge difference in how well your body responds. Doing your homework, making beneficial ergonomic changes, and shifts in nutrition will help speed healing, and help to create lasting change.

Types of Care

Why do people come for care? Drug free pain relief, posture correction, stress & strain relief, health & lifestyle promotion, injury prevention and recovery, sports performance, pregnancy, healthy baby and childhood check-ups.

Symptoms can be tricky. Your body is designed to survive rather than thrive. It can take a long time for symptoms to show up, even if something hasn’t been functioning well or is out of balance. This makes symptoms an unreliable indicator of your actual health. Even if you feel like you’ve just got some usual aches and pains, you may be over-taxing your body only to pay the price later… You really CAN feel good as you grow older… Chiropractic care can be a tremendous “aging gracefully” tool.

Types of care we offer:

  • Acute injury care
  • Symptom relief care
  • Corrective care (allowing your body to heal and re-train old patterns to help achieve long lasting results)
  • Maintenance care (maintaining your current level of function, helping keep symptoms at bay)
  • Wellness & Prevention (supporting your vitality and wellness so you feel as great as you want to, combating the inevitable daily stressors that come along with repetitive activities like carrying kids, device use, driving, computer jobs, sitting or standing for long periods etc.)

We accept MVA and WSIB claims, and we are able to directly bill to insurance companies in most cases. See your own contract and policy for details on coverage and requirements.
